Driving with One Hand on the Wheel


*** Verse 1

    F#m       E
You asked me to dinner 
    B          F#m
You brought me stuff
    E                 B
Now what do I make of that
    F#m        B
You made me an offer
  E           A
I called your bluff
    E               B
Now you're an amnesiac


*** Chorus:

             A        E      B
Driving with one hand on the wheel
         A         E     B
Ordering luck with every meal
           A                E
Feeding on hope again never mind how
        B
Small a portion

*** Verse 2:

I said like we do                       F#m  E
Like we'd like to think                 B    F#m
I'll take care of myself                E    B
And who would've thought that           F#m  B
Initial drink                           E    A
Would clear an entire shelf             E    B

*** Chorus:

Driving with one hand on the wheel      A    E    B
Ordering luck with every meal           A    E    B
Feeding on hope again never mind how    A    E
Small a portion                         B

*** Bridge:

           A          E          B
You should look at it realistically     
       A            E               B
I know you couldn't be in love with me  

*** Verse 3: 

You sat there as dumb                   F#m  E
As a dog or cat                         B    F#m
Just hoping it's for the best           E    B
As if anything ever                     F#m  B
Comes from that                         E    A
Except an appalling mess                E    B

*** Chorus

Driving with one hand on the wheel      A    E    B
Ordering luck with every meal           A    E    B
Feeding on hope again never mind how    A    E
Small a portion                         B

*** Verse 4                                      

Now you didn't bank                     F#m  E   
On the alchemy                          B    F#m 
That flattery turns to love             E    B      (possibly could be)
But you took that obstructions          F#m  B   Cause with top-heavy structures
Will always be                          E    A   There'll always be
The danger of falling off               E    B   The danger of falling off

*** Coda 

Driving with one hand on the wheel      A    E    B
Not knowing how or what to feel         A    E    B
You only knew that it was enough to be  A    E
Feeling something                       B
